The Crossing
by Johnny Clegg and Savuka
Intro: C
F Dm
Through all the days that eat away
Bb F
at every breath that I take
Dm
through all the nights I've lain alone
Bb F C
in someone else's dream, awake
Bb F
all the words in truth we have spoken
Bb F C
that the wind has blown away
Dm C Bb F
it's only you that remains with me
Em C
clear as the light of day
CHORUS
D Dsus4
O Siyeza, o siyeza , sizofika webaba noma
(we are coming, we are coming, we will arrive soon)
D Bm A
O siyeza, o siyeza, siyagudle lomhlaba
(we are coming, we are coming, we are moving across this earth)
Em Bm
Siyawela lapheshaya lulezontaba ezimnyama
(we are crossing over those dark mountains)
Em G D A
Lapha sobheka phansi konke ukhulupheka
(where we will lay down our troubles)
D Dsus4 D
F Dm
A punch drunk man in a downtown bar
Bb F
takes a beating without making a sound
Dm
through swollen eyes he sways and smiles
Bb F C
'cause noone can put him down
Bb F
inside of him a boy looks up to his father
Bb F C
for a sign or an approving eye
Dm Am Bb F
oh, it's funny how those once so close and now gone
Em C
can still so affect our lives
